Genre Task 1- Semiotics image task

In this genre task we made our own film titles which showed different genres.

Teen

In the following three photographs we tried to simulate the poster for a teen movie. We did this by using three teen actors displaying a love triangle in a school setting. The fact there are teens in the photo portray to the viewer that the film is of a teen genre. We did not show the image of the school very well however if it was showed better it would better display to the audience that the genre of the film is 'teen'.








 Drama

In these photos we show a close up of a character who is pulling a serious face. His serious face displays to the audience that this is a dramatic film.




 Seasonal

In this picture there is a grandfather and his daughter putting declarations on a Christmas tree. We can tell that the picture is seasonal as there is a Christmas tree and fairy lights in the photograph which correlate with the season of winter.


 

Comedy

In these snapshots we can see a person falling/slipping on a banana. I have used the prop of a banana as it is often associated with Comedy. We also used the idea of someone falling over as clumsy accidents make people laugh.























 Family

In this photo there is a couple with lots of children around. The photograph doesn't really work with the set genre of 'Family'. It looks like more of a 'Comedy' about a couple with too many children as they cant all fit under the umbrella.
